Fender installation

Looking for suggestions

I have the engine installed and running, radiator in, cowl and grille installed and fender braces bolted (but loose) to radiator shell. With "blind" and very difficult access to the heads of the bolts, figured now is the only time to get them on.

Can't figure out the logistics of getting the fender and inner fender onto the car. I know putting the inner fender on with outer fender on is a real bear from experience in doing valve adjustments a couple years ago, so am trying to do it as one piece, Is this the correct way? Can the fender braces remain on the radiator shroud or do they go on after the fender is on?
Any secrets or suggestions? In reading the manual, now, on engine removal, they remove the entire front clip as one assembly

Final stages of assembly, definitely light at the end of the tunnel and the car will soon be road worthy again, getting quite excited and pleased with progress
